There will be a break here.

US FTR2 to box 0 and NAV to box 3

Impulse #1 (Axis)

The Italian commander has lost his nerve, and orders his remaining submarine force to avoid combat. The SUBs in the Central Atlantic goes deep so the rolls there is cancelled, and in CSV there is not even a unit initiating a search. Bah.

Impulse #1 (Axis)

The Japanese commander agrees that it is pointless, but decides to order a search in Antipodes anyway. No Allied defences there so attempting to find the convoy is a must.

Mar/Apr '44
Impulse #1 (Axis)

Yep. Pointless. But at least it was proves to be pointless. (Axis 8, Allies 1, in Antipodes)

Don't forget to send the file

Allies are breathing again, waiting for how those naval searches go was quite nerve-racking.

Allies are breathing again, waiting for how those naval searches go was quite nerve-racking.

Breathing is good. I recommend it.
